What is the difference between TPE material and TPU? TPE materials are widely used in the field of life, and TPE material is also a kind of environmental protection material. But what is the difference between TPU materials and TPE materials?

1. Transparency

TPU's transparency is better than TPE, and it has no transparent TPE so easy to stick to.

2. Proportion

TPE's specific gravity range varies from 0.89 to 1.3, while TPU is between 1.0 and 1.4. In fact, they are used in the process, mainly in the form of blends, so the proportion of change big!

3. Oil resistance

TPU resistance to oily good, and TPE to do oil resistance is a certain difficulty.

4. After burning

TPE burns with a faint aroma, burning less and lighter smoke. TPU combustion with a certain pungent odor, burning when there is a slight explosion of the sound.

Mainly TPU material structure for the polymer homogeneous structure, belongs to polymer resin class. The TPE is a multicomponent composite of multiphase structure of the alloy. High-hardness TPE processing prone to product deformation, and in all hardness range, TPU has shown excellent elasticity, and products are not easily deformed.
